12/31/2020 1 Comment OMG another amazing moment...The Gothamist made a request for submissions for artwork (and other mediums) that reflects why we, the New Yorkers who have stayed the course through all that 2020 threw at us, still love NYC. I resonated with this sentiment so much, I sat down and painted "My Love Letter To NYC" and submitted it.
And guess what I found the morning of 12.22.2020? This! Okay so maybe the year isn't all bad. 12/16/2020 0 Comments The Moment that Made 2020 for MeAs a portrait artist, there are few things more satisfying than having the subject of your work praise their portrait. Now make that person an incredible leader for your community, a fierce advocate for the underdog and super cute to boot. Then top that off with over 500 of his fans (and still counting) loving on the portrait enough to blast-tag him into noticing your work. Yes, that is what has made 2020 all worth it for me.

Yesterday I feel like all of my pieces were worse that the one before. Of course I am trying to learn a new technique for portraits but still a little discouraging. But then my sister-in-law said my niece is really into rainbows and unicorns. So I did this. Funny thing is doing this felt kinda of palate cleansing. Do you like things like this? Please let me know.

I have been working to create art and to set up my website and online store. It is a lot but I think I am just about there. Here's to new adventures to round out a tough year! Here's a little screenshot of my online store page. This is fun! e 10/25/2020 0 Comments And so it begins...A dream come true, I am thrilled to have opened up my own art studio. Inspired by my sister Christi Furnas and the endless hours we have spent together in her art studio, I always dreamed that one day, I would have my own art studio.
One thing Covid-19 has made crystal clear, life is short and there is no reason to wait for someday. Today is the birth of ginger.plum.boy.studios I aim to create regularly. Let me know what you think! ginger.plum.boy |
